Hinged Die Cut Greeting Cards + Discount Code + FREE Gift

Hello! Today I am sharing a fun hinged die cut greeting technique. This is a great way to use your dies creatively for a unique card design!

I enjoy making cards that open a bit differently than a traditional card. For today’s cards, I created large elements that lift open to reveal a message. You can do this technique with most any die cut shape.

Happy birthday to PPP!! Thank you for the beautiful cards and the discount code… although you may want to make a correction on the date: “Save 10% off your purchase with the code “CELEBRATE5”. Good through 1/2/19. Shop HERE.” I thought the sale ended on the 2nd. (GASP!!) Good thing I double-checked! I got a few things on my wish list and a new stamp set just released!! Yay! Love your cards, and your blog.

These are so cute! I have a lot of pretty printed cardstock that I think would work nicely on these and save me a step, too. The hinged greeting is the focal point, anyway, especially if it’s done up as an in-lay or shaker card. Anxious to try this. Thanks so much. Hope you are rested and feeling well again! Hugz!

Life is good, Jennifer is back, hope you had a chance to rest up and enjoy the family, you deserve life’s blessings. I am inspired to try some of these and to venture out to try some different takes on the Hinge Shaker idea. Thank you so much for sharing your ideas, I always learn something new.

Your cards are wonderful as usual Jennifer. I love each one, but the one with the pretty jewels and the celebrate word is super. Love that ombre round hugs die you used too. Thanks for sharing your immense talents with us.

What a fun way to do something different with one’s cards! I appreciate your videos so much, because you always have so many great tips to make our cards better. Like, in this card, you have a great main technique, but you also have some really useful hints about making backgrounds. I get tired just thinking about how much time and effort must go into these videos and maintaining your blog and all the things you do, so I just want to say thank you. <3

Oh, Jennifer! This technique is absolutely awesome! I can’t wait to get upstairs to my studio and start creating! Thank you so much for making this instructional video…it was concise, detailed, and with the many examples, I’m sure I can do this! You are such a blessing!💟

You always come up with the most unique, creative ideas!! This is just so clever and creative and takes your cards over the top, anyone who receives this card would just feel so special! Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us, you are so inspiring!
